Actually, in theory, any entity can become an Adobe distributor.  You fill
out a form and various business folks at Adobe decide to approve you or not.
I have not tried to make Apache such a distributor as I think it would be
complicated to get Apache to execute a distributor's agreement since Adobe
licensing is not Apache compatible.

If I were to start my own "company" I would seek such a distributors
agreement.
